DCS: F-16C Viper - Startup Procedure

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N0wwyEZiOvU

In this DCS: F-16C Viper video, it’s time to learn the cold and dark startup procedure! This can be a rather long and involved process if you want to do it “by the book”, but you can certainly do a much faster, abbreviated startup if you wish.

This video is recorded from the included startup interactive training lesson.

We got the startup procedure done earlier than we expected (a few small items to still tune), so we have a few more videos to do prior to release.

We plan to release the Early Access version sometime in early Autumn 2019 (Autumn 2019 starts on 23 September).

DCS: F-16C Viper - ILS Landing

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mfJMeWabggY

In this DCS: F-16C Viper video, we will learn how to use the Instrument Landing System (ILS) of the F-16. When enabled based on the ILS frequency of the airfield, ILS provides localizer (azimuth steering) and glidepath steering bars to bring you down to the runway on the correct course and glidepath angle. This is most often used at night or foul weather that prevents a visual approach.

The ILS frequency of an airfield can be found on the F10 map view, in the Mission Editor, or often in the mission briefing.

We plan to release the Early Access version sometime in early Autumn 2019 (Autumn 2019 starts on 23 September).
